The ethos and culture of the Area Camden Group, as part of Polaris Community, is founded on core values of mutual respect and good parenting whilst being respectful to the values of privacy, dignity, independence, choice, rights and fulfilment.
Our purpose is to provide the highest quality care within very high quality settings in our Greater London homes and to offer young people care, accommodation and support as close to a family environment as possible. The residential care we provide is for 11 to 18-year olds and our focus is centred on the needs of the child. We are looking for Residential Support Workers to join our team on a casual basis. This amazing opportunity will also allow you flexibility to work hours you can commit to with no contractual obligation.
The welfare of our young people is paramount in the role of a Support Worker. Not only do Support Workers keep our young people safe, but as the daily care provider they also make a fundamental contribution to their care, learning and development.

Great emphasis and importance is attached to the recording of events and observations which will include young people's daily and monthly progress, updating of children's files, child protection records, notification to appropriate people and health and safety checks.
- Continually assess the children and young peoples' needs. Under the direction of your manager, and other appropriate personnel, you will be responsible for the formulation, implementation and review of care plans.
- You will work closely with your manager, your team, the health advisor, social workers, therapists, teachers and other professionals. You may also be involved with the young people's families, especially when supervising contacts.
- Encourage and support the young people with all of their daily living needs in line with their individual care plan.
